USB Audio Player PRO

High quality media player for Android

Supporting USB audio DACs to play audio files up to 32-bit resolution at any sample rate! Will play any popular format including wav, flac, mp3 and DSD files. This app is a must have for every HiFi enthusiast, bypassing all audio limits of Android. But even without a USB DAC, the app is still one of the highest quality media players around.

"Before this I was happy flirting between Neutron Player, Jet Audio Player Pro, PowerAmp and the new Sony Music App. I no longer need to bother with any of those again - the pure sound from this app leaves them all behind!" - user review

Bypassing the limits of Android

When connecting an Android phone or tablet to a USB DAC, USB Audio Player PRO will unleash the full power of the DAC, by using our custom developed USB audio driver. This bypasses the Android audio system completely, meaning that Android's limitations regarding bit resolution and sample rate (16-bit/48kHz) are made irrelevant and high quality audio streams are fed directly to the DAC, making playback up to 32-bit at 384kHz possible (depending on the DAC capabilities) or even DSD.

Connecting a USB DAC

You can use any Android device, given that it runs Android 3.1 or higher, has USB host support and support for isochronous USB transfers in the kernel. You connect the Android device to the DAC using a USB OTG cable to trigger USB host mode, like displayed in the picture, here showing a Nexus 5 connected to a JDS Labs C5D.

Support for DSD

if PCM audio is not enough

When you have a DAC capable of DSD (Direct Stream Digital), you can even play DSD (.dsf/.dff) files natively, providing a 1-bit digital stream (over PCM using the DoP protocol) like the Super Audio CD of past times! This format is now becoming increasingly more popular among audiophiles surpassing the quality of PCM audio streams. USB Audio Player PRO will convert the DSD stream to PCM if your DAC does not support DSD natively.
